How about sticking everything in a folder, then duplicating the descriptive
text file and Stuffing it along with the folder? That way, you could read
the text file to decide if you want to UnStuff the whole works, but could
also do the batch method if you prefer. If you used the batch method, the
extra text files would all be outside the folders and could easily be deleted
all at once.
